Hi David Can you tell me how are you initializing the bean to access the oracle database?
Go with <bean id="oracle-ds" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource" destroy-method="close"> <property name="driverClassName" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"/> <property name="url" value="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:DBname"/> <property name="username" value="scott"/> <property name="password" value="tiger"/> <property name="poolPreparedStatements" value="true"/> </bean> And please check which Maven dependency is needed for Oracle JDBC. The jars should contains some classes similar to classes12.jar. Please refer internet for the dependency. And anyways add following to your POM too <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-jdbc</artifactId> <version>x.x.x</version> </dependency> Cheers Reji -- View this message in context: http://camel.465427.n5.nabble.com/How-do-i-add-third-party-jars-in-normal-jar-deployment-tp5741987p5741989.html Sent from the Camel Development mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
